"Buffi is a creator"

"I think when you're a creator, you can design anything" Gunnar

BOOTED off Project Runway 8/9

I think we all know I am not "Project Run(of the mill)way" designer material.

I'm toots cool with it! I never intended to be loved and worn by everyone.  And if Heidi, Nina and Michael Kors don't get it then that is cool by me. 

I have had a huge amount of amazing people respond to my work and that means the world for me.

So HUGE thank you for the support, I'm so happy and so grateful that people out there "get it" and get me.

Onwards and upwards! Project Runway was the most exciting and brilliant experience of my life!  And I look forward to all the glitter and print that will continue to color my life and yours... 

I'm going to keep you up-to-date with all my new york moments here

Sixth Annual Grazia Style Awards to take place April 2012
Voting has begun for what is set to be the most stylish event of the year

One of the most stylish events on the calendar is fast approaching, with the Grazia Style Awards taking place on the April 4, 2012 at the Joharah Ballroom, Madinat Jumeirah. Voting is now open for the nominees, and readers have until March 10 to nominate their favourite brands before a shortlist is created. “White with a burst of colour” is the theme for this year’s annual awards ceremony, commonly referred to as the go-to guide for the region’s most fashion-savvy shoppers. Celebrating the region’s fashion industry, the Grazia Style Awards gives the public a chance to vote for their favourite shops, designers and most stylish readers. Grazia Middle East is awarding outstanding achievers in 14 different categories for the coveted Grazia Style Award, including the new Personality Award, which is exclusively chosen by the Grazia team.

Previous hosts of the event included Dubai’s Rosemin Manji and British designer Henry Holland, founder of House of Holland, which ensured the focus was always on style. This year Henry Holland will be returning to host the event, along with model and socialite Poppy Delevingne, Louis Vuitton’s new muse, making sure it is one of the most exclusive nights of the year. The hip young designer Henry Holland shot to fame in 2008 after his solo show at London Fashion Week, and is most famous for his ‘80s-inspired t-shirts with slogans such as “Get your freak on Giles Deacon”. “I’m so excited to be coming back to Dubai to present the Grazia Awards. The Middle East is such a unique, fascinating place and I can’t wait for my next visit,” divulges Henry. House of Holland is currently sold in premium stockists including Selfridges, Harvey Nichols, Barneys and Browns Focus.

Set in the luxurious Joharah Ballroom in the Madinat Jumeirah, next to the iconic Burj Al Arab, the event is sure to be a stunning affair with the who’s who of the Dubai fashion scene out in full force. Elaine Greenshields, Editor of Grazia Middle East explains, “We never miss a chance to celebrate style in the spotlight and this year we’ll be back for the 6th year running to pay tribute to all the regional fashion industry has to offer at the Grazia Style Awards. One of the most glamorous events on the fashion calendar, this year we have even more categories, high-profile celebrity hosts plus a few on-the-night surprises for the local industry. See you on April 4.”
